Amendment 69 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11 a (new)
(11 a) Even though multiple-vote shares can create risks for stakeholders of a company, by giving a stronger voice to founders and long-term shareholders, multiple-vote shares can also protect a company from an excessive focus on short-term interests and thereby help stimulate its long-term sustainable growth in line with the interests of stakeholders and the environment. To ensure multiple- vote shares are used in this positive way, companies issuing multiple-vote shares should publish a report detailing how their share structure helps promote the interests of all their stakeholders as well as the environment.
